We are a holistic health and fitness company currently in the process of updating our programs and services. We would like to collaborate with students to help develop program content that is evidence-based, engaging, easy to implement, and inclusive.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

• Researching principles of trauma-informed care, especially as they relate to nutrition and fitness.
• Developing wellness program content that incorporates evidence-based principles of nutrition, fitness, psychology, etc. Content will need to be engaging, easy for clients to implement and adhere to, and inclusive.
• Providing metrics to justify the implementation of the program.
• Revising and improving the proposed program based on feedback.

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

• Understanding of how trauma/ACEs affect relationships with food, fitness, sleep, stress, and self-esteem.
• Understanding of how inclusivity, cultural competence, and a client-centered focus intersect with evidence-based medicine to provide optimal client care.
• Development of a health and wellness program for our company.
• Recommendations and justification for the program’s implementation.

Bonus steps would include:

• Revising the program based on feedback
• Creating social media content (blog articles, posts, videos) to complement the program created

Final deliverables should include

• A fully developed wellness program.
• A 10-minute presentation.

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

• Our current programs and services
• Vision and direction of program being developed
• Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
